How to read this page

Source timestamps and retrieval times are shown separately. USGS observations may be provisional and revised. A failed refresh retains the last valid response and labels it as last known data. No flood stage, swimming safety, road passability, or forecast certainty is inferred from a river value. For urgent decisions, open the linked agency record.
